Description

Dr. Yung-Hsiang Ying, Dean and Professor, College of Management and Dr. De-Wai Chou, Director and Professor, NTNU-USC DIMBA Program, College of Management from the National Taiwan Normal University visited SDSB from February 7 to February 11, 2018. Their visit was aimed at enhancing academic ties with SDSB along with exploring avenues for collaborative research.

The delegation held discussions with various faculty members to discuss collaboration and corporation between academics of the two institutions. The delegation also attended various class sessions at SDSB to understand the academic practices at SDSB. They were highly appreciative of the teaching techniques applied at SDSB and provided their own insights and experiences from their teaching career. They met with administrators of various programmes, centres and academic groups at SDSB to enhance their understanding of the institution. These exchanges provided an opportunity for valuable discussions on administrative challenges faced by both schools. We hope that this knowledge sharing exercise leads to an effective resolution of such challenges.

The guests also had a talk with the Executive MBA students discussing the macroeconomic features of East Asian economies and the role of Taiwan. The discussion also included various aspects of the global dynamics and challenges and opportunities for Asia in the context of emerging economic trends.

On February 9, China Pakistan Management Initiative in collaboration with Strategic Sector Research Centre hosted a well-attended research seminar where both guests presented their recent research ideas. The seminar concluded with an in-depth question and answer session followed by refreshments.
